Document a bunch a toolchain related variables. These follow a naming
scheme to make them easier to deduce from the name. Try clearing this
out for users reading the documentation.

Fixes https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15719.

Changes in v3:
- Review by Quentin (thank you!):
  - Include section number for manpage links.
  - For BUILD_* variables, be more precise about the fact that we should
    not override it from recipes but we can sometimes use them to refer
    to a host tool from a target recipe context.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250326-cc-vars-v2-0-36b80c64c4a9@bootlin.com

Changes in v2:
- Add a patch to define a manpage url, for giving manpage links in the
  docs.
- Reformulate the BUILD_* definitions to explicitely say that we are not
  supposed to set these variables or use them directly in recipes.
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250317-cc-vars-v1-0-25edbadfd054@bootlin.com
